Erratum.

I apologise. I will also correct myself.

They (The Bushistas) had a plan. [Assumption]
This (The US in Iraq) is an occupation. [Fact]
The plan was not for an occupation. [Assumption]

I have no idea what the plan was/is.

87Bn just proves that they have encountered something that either was:

i) Not in their hitherto unknown plan.
ii) In their plan, but which was not related to outside parties.

i - demonstrates a poor plan, or developments occured beyond the planners control and or expectations.
ii - demonstrates deceit.

I will always believe in cockups and incompetence before conspiracies so I will assume that the 87Bn is for things unplanned.
The occupation was unplanned, and that therefore part of the 87Bn is to pay for the occupation.
